We can't say we exactly know what theatrical skating entails, but the Harmony Theater Company, based out of Hartland, will be representing the U.S.A. in Spain for the Nations Cup. We're guessing it's a bit more complicated than the stuff they do at Disney On Ice.
Excerpt:
"With 48 young skaters representing towns across Michigan, the skaters will perform a long program and short program in a combination of theater and skating.
“Theater on Ice is a combination of technical skating and theatrical skating, it’s like musical theater on ice,” coach Michelle Hunt said. “It’s done in six minutes and we can have up to 30 on our team and we tell a story from beginning to end.”"
